And the week after I will mainly be doing: scrubbing the kitchen floor on hands and knees after a hard morning's dolly-ing and mangle-ing, and hearing a door open simultaneously with a voice saying 'where's me tea'.

Any volunteers for wearing a hat in church not a thong, and ........aagh I give up !

You have all those modern conveniences like mangles and a dolly? You are lucky, we were so poor (cue Monty Python).............

Not quite sure what the last sentence means though. My voice is so bad that I rarely thing in church. I don't like the thongs anyway. Too much religion in them and to be truthful I don't go to church either.

Where's me tea? So very 1950's. One says Where's me dinner?:D these days Dora.

It was to all those who had so recently lived through and survived a second World war

Thanks for the links, I found them interesting and amusing, yes even the advertising images. Very useful for those who enjoy geneology or the modernised version of scrapbooking.

Psst: :shhh: I didn't find the kitchen sink joke offensive, you only have to read the OS forum to realise that it is still predominately women who are at the kitchen sink/dishwasher :laugh: :silenced:
